Gamercamp

Bring your retro caps and nostalgia pants because it's going to be a day of looking back at the games that defined our lives and an industry and how they continue to influence us today.

We will be bringing together speakers and panelists from the Toronto gaming industry, and open game demo stage and a very cool exhibition curated by the Replay Arcade Museum on retro and rare games.

1UP!

Every game's gotta have an epic end and so should Gamercamp. Battle it out on a curated collection of classic (and original!) arcade cabs from the Replay Arcade Museum. Drinks will be served and play will be unlimited. Will you be the king or queen of Kong?
